“For me, Andre has done so much for Ghana. He started way back in 2007, and he has been consistent in the national team. He is the most capped player,” Gyan said on Joy FM.
“I think the coach has made his decision. Personally, I played with Andre, and he has done everything for Ghana, but this is the situation whereby we have to move on. The coach has made his decision.”
